It’s worth noting that prior to the Dec. 2024 killing of CEO Brian Thompson of its largest subsidiary (UnitedHealthcare), UnitedHealth’s valuation was above $500 billion.
As we highlighted in a previous graphic, the company is the world’s eighth largest company by revenue, bringing in $372 billion during its 2024 fiscal year.
UnitedHealth has made several major acquisitions in recent years, with one example being LHC Group, a provider of in-home healthcare services, for $5.4 billion.
Progressive Gains
The second largest company in the U.S. insurance industry is Progressive, which is known for its popular ads featuring “Flo”, a fictional saleswoman.
Rather than health insurance, Progressive focuses on vehicle insurance (personal and commercial).
Shares of Progressive (Ticker: PGR) have climbed 230% over the past five years, significantly outperforming the S&P 500’s return of 81%.
Not all insurance companies are rising, though. Shares of Elevance Health, #4 on this ranking, fell over 20% in 2024 after the company reduced its forward earnings guidance.
